Z90 Tachi Ultimate SATA Issues

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   I am having an issue with the SATA drive on my Z90 Tachi Ultimate MD. I have 2 M2 drives installed (Samsung M2 970 Pro Raid 0) in slots M2-1 and M2-3. I have the raid configuration completed and window 10 pro installed. Everything works great. The issue is when I add a 2TB SSD on SATA3_A1/A2 the drive doesn?�t show BIOS. The dr debug code show A6 which is some SATA issue. I disconnect the drive reboot and it still shows A6 on the debug code when in the BIOS. I tried another drive I know is good and it didn?�t see it. When the system is in windows debug shows 40. According to the documentation, SATA3_A1/A2 should be ok to use since it is not using the Z390 SATA integration if I am reading the documentation correctly
Ideas?
Thanks, Rob.
